Road Tripping

Asheville this morning.  FIRST road trip since the pandemic started.  Only "worry" is bathrooms.  I plan to be relatively dehydrated all day for fewer bathroom needs (!!)  Today feels exciting and a little scary.  Guess that's what adventure feels like -- I swear it's been so long that I'm out of practice for existing in the outside world.

I packed lunch and dinner.  Fancy for a road trip, but I wanted to make the new recipes while everything was fresh.  Lunch is chilean sea bass with a citrus and olive salsa and green beans with a walnut and cilantro pesto.  Dinner is the sea bass again with a spinach, blueberry and feta salad.  I didn't want to add eating to the list of safety concerns.  

The live Peloton ride isn't my thing.  The instructor is early to class and chats before the ride starts -- that was fun.  I didn't like that the reminder parameters on the screen aren't active for live rides.  Makes sense -- they backfill the ranges after the live ride.  I like the reminder and the feedback that I'm in range.  It was also a bother to time the start exactly -- too much effort when I like the replays better.  I can see why it's good for certain styles of riding though.  I might do a live ride here and there if I need a change up, but probably not :)

This was a PRODUCTIVE week and I needed a little boost of forward direction.  Hour meditation, stopped zen sleeping melts, live Peloton ride and a bunch of new recipes.  Start building my "doing" endurance again.

Fingers crossed for today.  It's the biggest day I've had in a year.  Dang, I'm nervous -- some good nerves, some scared nerves.  

Stay well.  Later gators.
